WATZ HOTT or WATZ NOT?

Okay, this was my 1st Watz Hott & I almost did not go because some persons were saying that it's more like Watz Not! I can now strongly DISAGREE. I think it was great to see so many persons doing what they obviously love (they must love it since I doubt they make any real $$ anyway). There was definitely a lack of support at this event. As Guyanese, we should come out in strong numbers to encourage the growth of this industry and not only when someone becomes the ‘next big thing’.
The late start meant that by 1:30am, when it was time for me to go, there was no performance from Shelly G, Fojo, Timeka or Celeste. Although disappointed this did not take away from the experience.
Always give love to Jory (who opened the show btw). Love his lyrics but I hope that he’d put so more effort in his movement (always seem a bit stiff).
2007 Soca Monarch, Malo was back without his locks but much more entertaining. Last I heard was that he’s singing on a cruise ship. But whatever he’s doing his voice has certainly improved. I was feeling drained just watching him run, bounce & whine about the stage. Through all this he still kept up his energy & voice from start to finish.
Some of the Cellink Jingles Finalists got a chance to ‘do dey ting’. We saw on stage Quacy aka Avalanche, Carlvin Burnette (Runner up) & Malika Boyd (Winner). They again did not fail to shine.
My definite fav for the night though was Mr. Johnny Braff. Goodness had me, along with many others, waltzing all around the ground not caring who was watching.
When I left Big Red was just hitting the stage & by that time there had already been good performances, a few not so good ones and even some very comical ones. There was a nice mix of music, dancing and comedy. Chow Pow and Malcolm had good chemistry and comedic timing, did a great job of MCing. Mr. Ian Johnson (a.k.a. Mr. Dynamix) needs a compliment for putting this together (not for organization though), it was great having some of the best Entertainers in Guyana at one location. All in all it wasn’t a bad night of Guyanese Entertainment. People, No Excuses! You most definitely need to put this on your calendar for 2010. And to everyone the show definitely is WATZ HOTT in Guyana.
